These engines are equipped with a replaceable, high 

density paper air cleaner element. Some engines are 

also equipped with an oiled, foam precleaner which 

surrounds the paper element. Two different capacity 

air cleaner systems are available. 

Check the air cleaner daily or before starting the 

engine. Check for a buildup of dirt and debris around 

the air cleaner system. Keep this area clean. Also 

check for loose or damaged components. Replace all 

bent or damaged air cleaner components.

Servicing Precleaner:
If so equipped, wash and re-oil the precleaner every 

25 hours of operation (more often under extremely 

dusty or dirty conditions). Replace the precleaner 

1.  Open the door on the blower housing 

to access the air cleaner element and 

precleaner.

2.  Unhook the latch and remove the precleaner 

from the air cleaner element, or remove as 

an assembly for servicing. Make sure the 

base and the sealing area is clean before 

reassembly is performed.

3.  Wash the precleaner in warm water with 

detergent. Rinse the precleaner thoroughly 

until all traces of detergent are eliminated. 

Squeeze out excess water (do not wring). 

Allow the precleaner to air dry.

4.  Saturate the precleaner with new engine oil. 

Squeeze out all excess oil.

5.  Reinstall the precleaner over the paper 

element and secure with the latch.

6.  Close and latch the door.

every 50 hours of operation, 

(more often under extremely dusty or dirty conditions). 

Clean or replace the element as necessary. Replace 

the air cleaner element

access the air cleaner element.

3.  Remove the precleaner (if so equipped) from 

the paper element. Service the precleaner as 

described in Precleaner Service.
